Hi there! You don’t have to face life’s challenges alone—support is here, and you are in the right place. Whether you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or just need someone to truly listen, I’m here to help. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in North Carolina, and I earned my Master’s Degree from the University of Maryland Baltimore. With 18 years of experience, I’ve had the privilege of supporting individuals through life’s challenges, unexpected changes, and the weight of anxiety and stress. I believe that each person already holds the unique answers they need to move forward. As your therapist, my role is to walk alongside you in discovering those answers, helping you build confidence and trust in yourself. Together, we’ll work on developing the tools and skills necessary to navigate whatever life throws your way.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
Our initial session will provide an opportunity for us to learn a little about ourselves by way of an introduction. I will then set out to explore with you your primary reasons for seeking therapy as well as secondary goals you would like to work on, once your most urgent needs are addressed. Your self identified goals will help me to develop a plan that will guide the course of following sessions.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
With over 17 years as a clinical social worker, my greatest strength is my ability to connect with people from all walks of life. I have worked with individuals facing a wide range of challenges—young adults stepping into independence, professionals managing career and life transitions, parents balancing responsibilities, and those navigating periods of uncertainty. My experience spans diverse settings, allowing me to understand and adapt to each person’s unique circumstances. I provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients can feel heard and understood. Therapy is a deeply personal process, and I respect the individuality of each person’s journey. My approach is flexible, shaped by years of working with people in different stages of life.
Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.
I love working with professional men and women who are striving to create meaningful change in their lives. Whether you're navigating career stress, life transitions, or seeking a deeper understanding of yourself, I provide a supportive space to help you gain clarity and confidence. I also enjoy working with young adults who are in college or just starting out in their careers, helping them build a strong foundation for their future. If you're struggling with a major life change or a difficult situation that feels overwhelming, you don’t have to go through it alone. Together, we’ll explore how your past experiences have shaped you and develop strategies to move forward in a way that aligns with your goals and values. My goal is to help you build the skills needed to navigate life’s challenges with confidence and clarity.

I use Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to help clients better manage their emotions, build stronger relationships, and cope with stress.

In Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), I work alongside my clients to identify strengths, set goals, and find practical solutions to life’s challenges. Together, we focus on what’s working, build on small successes, and develop strategies that create meaningful change in everyday life.
Person-centered (Rogerian)
My approach is all about creating a space where you feel heard, understood, and supported.
